The '''MV5835 Maronesa''' is the flagship heavy infantry fighting vehicle of the Carlosian Army. Experience from the Bourgougian Blitz indicated the need to replace the aging fleet of MV4344 Jiron armoured vehicles with a more durable 'battle taxi' for the transport and protection of mechanised infantry. Misrias Steelworks answered by presenting a prototype that would eventually evolve into the MV5835 Maronesa to the Carlosian Armed Forces Procurements Office on 29 June 1995. Meeting the requirements for a vehicle that was able to transport a full infantry squad, match the speed of the MV4344 Jiron, provide superior protection and be highly modular, the MV5835 Maronesa entered into service with the Carlosian Army starting in 1999. Since entering service, it has only been used in low-intensity combat situations. It has not been exported to other countries. | The '''MV5835 Maronesa''' is the flagship heavy infantry fighting vehicle of the Carlosian Army.

The MV5835 Maronesa is the flagship heavy infantry fighting vehicle of the Carlosian Army. Experience from the Bourgougian Blitz indicated the need to replace the aging fleet of MV4344 Jiron armoured vehicles with a more durable 'battle taxi' for the transport and protection of mechanised infantry. Misrias Steelworks answered by presenting a prototype that would eventually evolve into the MV5835 Maronesa to the Carlosian Armed Forces Procurements Office on 29 June 1995. Meeting the requirements for a vehicle that was able to transport a full infantry squad, match the speed of the MV4344 Jiron, provide superior protection and be highly modular, the MV5835 Maronesa entered into service with the Carlosian Army starting in 1999. Since entering service, it has only been used in low-intensity combat situations. It has not been exported to other countries.
Due to the modularity of its design, the MV5835 Maronesa's chassis has been used as the basis for several other variants. These include a mortar carrier, light tank, and multipurpose SHORAD/anti-tank system.
Background
Design
Armament
The MV5835 Maronesa's primary armament consists of a 40 mm autocannon. It fires highly effective 40×365mm APFSDS-T rounds, capable of penetrating well over 150 mm RHAe. Its intended target is light to medium armoured vehicles such as other infantry fighting vehicles and armoured personnel carriers.
Attached to either side of the turret are reloadable ATGM missile launchers. In total, an MV5835 Maronesa can carry seven ATGM missiles, with two stored in the launchers and four more in the passenger compartment.
On top of the turret is a remote-controlled weapon system. Usually, this is equipped with a 9.48 mm L486 chaingun. The crew have the option of allowing it to operate autonomously, though it is more common for the commander to operate it himself from inside the vehicle.
